7 species of the Arowanas!

[rebelagent]

Did you know there are about 7 species of the Arowanas? There about 3 from South America, one from Africa and three form Australia. There is one from the South American species that has been known to jump as far as 6 feet from the water surface to pick off monkeys from branches over hanging the waters.
